Red Sox Miss Second 10-Game Winning Streak as Ninth-Inning Rally Falls Short
The Boston Red Sox failed to secure their second 10-game winning streak of the season, falling short despite a bases-loaded opportunity in the ninth inning. The team, which set a franchise record with 15 consecutive wins in July, scored one run in the final frame but could not complete the comeback. Masataka Yoshida, who recorded two hits in each of the previous two games, did not appear in this contest. The Red Sox have climbed from last place in the division to within reach of the second-place Yankees, and interim manager Tracy said the team would adjust its mindset for upcoming games.

Thanks to their summer run of victories, the Red Sox have climbed from the bottom of the division to within reach of the second-place Yankees. Interim manager Tracy said after the game: "We did what we needed to do early in the game, there was nothing we could do." He also said the team would adjust its mindset and continue preparing for the games ahead.
